For the best possible sound on your Clarinet you most:
- Put upper teeth firmly on the top of the mouthpiece.
- Sit up straight on the edge of your chair.
- Place your feet firmly on the ground in front of you.
- Place your lower lip slightly over your lower teeth.
- Seal your lips around the mouthpiece; make them firm.
- Point your chin and firm up the corners of your mouth (don’t puff your cheeks).
- Keep your lips firm while opening your mouth slightly.
- Don't bite down on the mouthpiece.
